Wicked Pleasure (Bound Hearts)
Lora Leigh

St. Martin's Griffin, 2008

Another diamond from Lora

+ Loved this book

Once again Lora delivers another winner. The sexual power she consistantly outputs is prolific. The sheer erotic energy is staggering. What more can I say other than I wish Com and Chase would come to my bed. Two men at the same time is fantastic, but twin brothers is something extra. I can't get ...
  
  











  



  
Lover Enshrined (Black Dagger Brotherhood, Book 6)
J.R. Ward

Signet, 2008

LOVED IT

+ Less fluffy
+ Botherhood stories (plural) not Phury's BUT still worth reading

I just finished the book and I loved every minute of it. 1. first of all it is a whole lot better than "Lover Unbound" so it deserves a higher rating. It should at least have a four star rating. 2. I loved Phury's tragedy and redemption. 3. I loved all of the twists and surprises. I ...
  
  











  



  
Sail
James Patterson, Howard Roughan

Hachette Audio, 2008

Audio version not a great listen

+ Sail

Sail is a good book for light reading. A small insignificant twist at the end. The who-done-it is told in the beginning. The audio read is strange. There are two readers, a man and a woman. Perfect!!! right? Not exactly. Who is reading the book depends on what character is recounting the ...
  
  











  



  
New Moon (The Twilight Saga, Book 2)

The Lost Duke of Wyndham (Two Dukes of Wyndham, Book 1)
Julia Quinn

Avon, 2008

Julia Quinn is amazing!

+ Proves again why she's consistently a NYTB author ...
+ The Lost Duke of Wyndham

I just had to respond to all the negative reviews about this book. I fell in love with the characters from the beginning and never once got bored with the story. Grace is a sweet heroine, and Jack is fantastic! I even told a friend that he is right up there with James Malory, (hero of Johanna ...

Chasing Harry Winston: A Novel
Lauren Weisberger

Simon & Schuster, 2008

Easy Read, Lots of Fun

This is just like all the other single gal in NYC books. I love them all and I thought this was a good addition. It is a quick and easy read and was an overall good book. All these books start to blend in together after a while but I continue to enjoy new ones. It is a nice escape!

Crippled Dreams & Love and Madness
David Rehak

CreateSpace, 2008

This is one of those special reads that does more than entertain, it enlightens the reader about the most profound questions about being human. We begin with the novel CRIPPLED DREAMS, an emotional favorite. Rose is pregnant and alone. She gives birth to a boy, Alexandre. But he is born with crippled legs. His healthy younger brother Gustave grows up to be everything that Alex wants to be but ...

+ Extraordinary
+ flawed but fine effort
  
  











  



  
The Spies of Warsaw: A Novel
Alan Furst

Random House, 2008

One of Furst's best.

+ Furst is first!!!
+ Not as gripping as Furst's earlier works

In his return to Warsaw, Alan Furst penned a work that, to me, reads more like The Polish Officer than any of his other works. The craft and protocols of the spy game, the rift in thinking (and arrogance) in the French general staff, the terrible innovations of Guderian.......... all mesh in a ...
  
  











  



  
Black Flies: A Novel
Shannon Burke

Soft Skull Press, 2008

Compelling and Well Written

+ This book is terrific
+ amazing
  
  











  



  
Invincible (Star Wars: Legacy of the Force, Book 9)
Troy Denning

Del Rey, 2008

Legacy Finale

I need to start with a confession-a bad Star Wars book is better than none! I liked all 9 books but feel the whole story could have been said in 5 volumes. Jacen's slow transition into sithdom and all his "feelings" dragged on a little too long. I did not like how main characters had to be killed ...
